		<description><![CDATA[David Argent has built an O-scale model of one of the three PC class streamlined pacific locomotives supplied to Iraq by Robert Stephenson &#038; Hawthorns in 1941. There was a fourth, 504 Kirkuk, but the ship was sunk en route.
Wikipedia has a lot of information on them. A very detailed article on the locos appeared [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The September 2007 issue of Railway Magazine has an article entitled &#8220;Locos Lost At Sea&#8221; by Mike Hudson and Philip Atkins, which attempts to list all the locomotives which have been lost beneath the waves through ship wrecks and the like. It mentions in passing &#8220;an Iraqi streamlined Pacific&#8221;, and a table of sunken locos [...]]]></description>

A postcard found by Rainer Fuchs which shows one of the streamlined pacific steam locomotives built for Iraq by Robert Stephenson &#038; Hawthorns in 1940. Locos 501 Baghdad, 502 El Mosul and 503 El Basrah entered service in 1941, but 504 Kirkuk didn&#8217;t make it and is now on the seabed somewhere&#8230;
There is a high-resolution [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rainer Fuchs e-mailed with links to two YouTube movies showing a British Pathe film of Iraq in 1954.
Part 1 shows one of the Robert Stephenson &#038; Hawthorns streamlined pacific locomotives in action, along with a steam loco shunting in Basra, assorted buses and some BOAC aeroplanes.
Part 2 is more about the history. No railway content, but still worth a watch. They don&#8217;t film &#8216;em like that anymore.
